In this work, we report the hydrothermal synthesis, characterization, and photocatalytic activity of SnO2 nanoparticles (NPs) towards methylene blue (MB) dye. The synthesized sample was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis), scan...
